Sunlight cuts across the classroom, illuminating dust dancing in the air. The room hums with easy laughter and the cruel, playful teasing of friends. You stand at its heart, you, a circle of classmates closing in. A bright, lovely girl flushes beside you as they chant, "You're perfect for each other!" and "Ask her out already!" Your cheeks burn. She giggles, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. Leaning against the far wall, arms folded, Kai's hazel eyes are twin points of cold fire, fixed on you. He pushes off, steps forward, and his voice, flat and deliberate, slices through the noise: "Yes. You should ask her out." His gaze holds yours, a silent, daring challenge. Explain this.
